A lovely flower. Get out there with your knife and fork Spritz. Where's your sense of adventure?

Hairy Bitter Cress???? EEEKKK!!! My horrible little weedy enemy no.1???

I didn't know that, Sbg. I shall look at this plant with fear and trepidation now :-(

Had never heard of Hairy Bitter Cress (had to do the Google bit). Your Cardamine looks so much nicer - I'm sure it must be a very distant cousin.

The flowers look very, very different, and so do the leaves. Thank goodness! I shan't object if the Cardamine seeds itself just a bit, though.

You are lucky, not to know Hairy Bittercress!! It is an absolute MENACE.
